ROTATABLE SHEARING BLADES FOR PROGRESSIVE TRANSVERSE CUTTING Filed Dec. 10, 1958 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 I W :i
United States Patent 3,084,582 ROTATABLE SHEARING BLADES F OR PRO- GRESSIVE TRANSVERSE CUTTING Andrew W. Anderson, West Caldwell, N.J., assignor to Scandia Packaging Machinery Company, North Arlington, N.J., a corporation of New Jersey Filed Dec. 10, 1958, Ser. No. 779,373 3 Claims. (Cl. 88-341) This invention relates to cutting or severing means.
More particularly stated, the invention relates to mechanism for cutting a sheet or web of material, such as metal foil. It has been found difficult to make a clean sharp cut in a strip or web of metal foil by cutting or shear blades since the cutting edges are not positively controlled and guided so that they properly register when they engage and cut the web.
This invention has for its salient object to provide positively acting means for insuring the proper registration of cutting edges of cutting or shear blades when the sheet or web to be cut is engaged and cut thereby.
Another object of the invention is to provide adjustable means for insuring the proper registration of and the desired pressure of a pair of coacting cutting blades at the time the cutting action takes place.
Another object of the invention is to provide means for preventing abutting engagement of shear blades during their cutting operation.
Another object of the invention is to provide means for insuring the withdrawal of the cutting blades after the cutting action without injury to the cutting edges.
Further objects of the invention will appear from the following specification taken in connection with the drawings which form a part of this application, and in which FIG. 1 is a vertical sectional elevation showing cutting mechanism embodying the invention, this view being taken substantially on line 11 of FIG. 2, looking in the direction of the arrows;
FIG. 2 is a top plan view of the cutting mechanism;
FIG. 3 is a transverse sectional elevation, on an enlarged scale, taken substantially on line 33 of FIG. 2, looking in the direction of the arrows, and showing the blades prior to their cutting position;
FIG. 4 is a view similar to FIG. 3 but showing the cutting blades in cutting position;
FIG. 5 is a View similar to FIGS. 2 and 3 but showing the blades in the act of withdrawal from cutting position;
FIG. 6 is a sectional elevation taken substantially on line 66 of FIG. 2, looking in the direction of the arrows;
FIG. 7 is a plan view of one of the cutting blades;
FIG. 8 is a plan view of the other cutting blade; and
FIG. 9 is an elevational view of the two blades as they move into cutting relation.
In the embodiment of the invention illustrated in the drawings, FIG. 1 shows a web of material W, such as metal foil, being fed between a pair of feed rolls 15 and 16 through guides 17 and 18 to cutting mechanism comprising a pair of cutting blade assemblies indicated generally at 19' and 20 including cutting blades 19 and 29, respectively.
The cutting blades, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, are respectively carried by spindles or trunnions '25 and 26, which are mounted in frame members 27 and 28, respectively. The blade 19 is mounted on a cylindrical block 30 carried by the spindles or trunnions 25. The block is slabbed off, as shown at 31, and has a recess 32 in which the blade 19 is mounted. The blade can be adjusted by a set screw 33 and is held in adjustable position by screws 34 which seat in slots 29 in the blade 19.
The blade 20 is mounted in a recess 35 in a mounting bar 36 which is integral with the spindles or trunnions 26.
ice
The blade 20 has a recess 37 and is held in the recess by bolts 38, springs 39 being seated in the recess and against the heads 40 of the bolts 38. The recess is L- shaped; see FIGS. 2-4, and includes a planar surface 35' against which the planar surface 20 of the blade 20 is normally urged and seated by springs 39. The recess 35 includes a surface 35" substantially normal to surface 35, and the adjacent surface 20" of the blade 20 extends at an acute angle from the planar surface 20" to form a clearance or relief angle a. The intersection i between the surfaces '20 and 20" forms a pivot portion p for the blade 20 at the intersection between the surfaces 35 and 35".
This relief angle, as will be readily apparent, will permit the blade 20 to move slightly away from the blade 19 during initial engagement between the blades to thus obviate excessive wear on the engaging blade portions.
The trunnion 26 has mounted thereon a spiral gear 41 which meshes with a spiral gear 41 on the spindle or trunnion 25. In FIG. 1 it will be noted that an arcuate plate 42 is adjustably secured to the spiral gear by means of bolts 43 which extend through slots 43 in the plate 42.
The bar 36 has bolts 44 and 45 which extend through the bar and engage the ends of the arcuate plate 42 and thus secure the spiral gear for rotation with the bar and the blade 20. Lock nuts 46 secure the bolts 44 and 45 in adjusted position. By loosening one of the bolts and tightening the other, the blade 20 can be adjusted so as to engage the blade 19 with the desired pressure during the cutting operation.
In order to insure proper registration of the cutting blades in the manner illustrated in FIGS. 3, 4 and 5 and to insure a sharp, clean cut of the web of material passing therebetween, each blade has on one end a projection or tooth, these projections being designated 50 and 51 in FIGS. 7 and 8. The action of these teeth or projections is illustrated in FIGS. 3, 4 and 5. In FIG. 3 the teeth are in engagement prior to the engagement of the cutting edges 55 and 56 of the blades 19 and 20. In FIG. 4 the engagement of these projections or teeth has caused the blade 20 to be depressed against the action of the springs 39 and the cutting edges 55 and 56 have moved into cutting position. Since the projections 50 and 51 are provided at one end only of the blades, the depression of the blade 20 against the action of the springs will take place longitudinally of the blades and progressively, thus giving a slight shearing action to the blades during the cutting action. It will be noted that initial engagement between teeth 50, 51 will initially cause the blade 20 to pivot at P from the position shown in FIG. 2 to that of FIG. 3, the blade moving through the relief angle a and preventing shock and damage to the blade during initial engagement and yet permitting subsequent longitudinal and progressive shear along the length of the respective blades, this longitudinal shear occurring after the adjacent surfaces 20 and 35" are in abutting engagement as seen in FIG. 4.
After the web has been cut by engagement of the cutting edges 55 and 56, as shown in FIG. 4, the continued rotation of the blades will hold the blade 20 in depressed relation as the projections continue in engagement and move away from each other, so that the cutting edge 55 will clear the cutting edge 56 and any injury to the cutting edges will be prevented.
It will be noted that the gears 40, 41 provide a positive mechanical drive between blade assemblies 20, 19 and the adjusting screws 45 in cooperation with the bar 36 and arcuate plate 42 provide means for adjusting initial contacts or timing the moment of engagement between teeth 50, 51, i.e. compensating for gear tooth inaccuracies which might cause late or early engagement aosgesa between the teeth 50, 51, thus permitting an accurate adjustment for the length of the sheets of material to be severed from Web W during each complete revolution of gear 40.
Although one specific embodiment of the invention has been particularly shown and described, it will be understood that the invention is capable of modification and that changes in the construction and in the arrangement of the various cooperating parts may be made without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention, as expressed in the following claims.
